A campaign contribution that was distributed incorrectly and then when the error was found was taken care of. That is all the story is. The rest,
well, is based on a liberal watchdog group. Mr. Jordan Libowitz of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington,

She approached him not the other way around. She was looking for donations because he gives quite a bit to politicians.

The sequence began when Bondi herself solicited a donation from Trump. That solicitation was reported this year by the Associated Press. That
request came as Bondi was considering allegations that Trump University — a real estate seminar business — had defrauded customers in Florida.
Trump decided to give to the group connected to Bondi, called "And Justice for All." Then, a request for a check was sent to an accounts-payable clerk
at Trump's headquarters.

This clerk was empowered to cut checks from both Trump's personal account and from the Trump Foundation. In most cases, political contributions were
paid out of Trump's own account. But, in this case, that didn't happen. In March, Trump's chief financial officer told The Post that a mistake
occurred when an accounting clerk — following office protocol — looked in a book that contained a list of all official charities.

The clerk's standing order from Trump was that, if the payee was listed in this book of charities, the check should be paid from the Trump Foundation,
not from Trump's own account. The clerk found a group called "And Justice for All" listed in the book. The clerk cut the check from the Trump
Foundation. But that was wrong. Trump's chief financial officer, Allen Weisselberg, told The Post that the charity in the book was actually from Utah,
and unconnected to Bondi. If the clerk had known that the check was meant for a political group, Weisselberg said, “we would have taken it out of
[Trump’s] own personal account.”

...and this is guy you are voting for?
Please...this another transparent act of double dealing and lying when caught...how can someone that endorses or direct this type of immature behavior
possibly lead the free world?
This is madness.
Cheers

I guess everyone wants to ignore your post and just keep bashing trump lol, seems like it was an actual mistake, in which HE PAID THE FINE, and did
what he was supposed to to correct the mistake. Nice how a lot of people are so quick to call bribery and illegal and all that crap without even
reading up on the situation, they just read the bs hyped up story that omits all the important stuff.

That makes no sense. Since it has not been investigated, there is no crime?
I am not certain your pretzel logic can defend your man here. The evidence as it stands is fairly damning and a Criminal Complaint has just been
filed.

This is the charge against Trump in the Criminal Complaint that has just been filed.

They are asking for a Grand Jury Investigation with associated urgency since the FL AG is presently in Office and Trump is seeking Office.

No, I meant there was no investigation by the Attorney General of Trump U. If there was, and Trump had given her money, then you may have a case. But
it appears grasping for straws may be the only thing some of us can do at this time.

But it's good to know you guys are starting to show disdain for corruption. It's about time.

Is there any proof on the record that she was investigating the Trump University situation?

Because that's the main part of the story here, are there documents that prove it?

Bondi, who's poised to join Trump at a presidential campaign rally in Tampa on Saturday, was upset by news accounts implying that she dropped an
investigation into Trump's education program because of the contribution.

"I never, nor was my office, investigating him. Never. I would never lie. I would never take money. I've been obviously devastated over this," Bondi
said in a voicemail message to a Times/Herald reporter.

YES...It was all over the news, she had dozens of complainants in FL calling for her to File charges on behalf of the state at the time. She was
public about it.

The donation came from one of Trump's charities six days after Bondi's then-spokeswoman told a reporter their office was "currently reviewing the
allegations" against Trump University in a class action lawsuit in New York
